Site
The generated site is a single front page (plus a few subpages) that frames the individual viewer plugins in labelled boxes and offers a floating style selector to switch the whole viewer look at runtime.
Root page (viewer)
The root page shows the viewer scaffold:
- a form to open a document by METS / IIIF URL (pre-filled with the local sample),
- an Examples dropdown to load one of the built-in sample documents,
-
the viewer itself, split into the individual plugins:
Plugin What it renders dlf_pageview the OpenLayers map / page image dlf_navigation page controls (first, back, page number, forward, last, double page) dlf_pagegrid thumbnail strip of the pages dlf_metadata the document's metadata dlf_tableofcontents the structure / table of contents dlf_calendar the newspaper year / day overview dlf_toolbox the toolbox (zoom, rotation, fulltext, downloads, 3D, score, ...) dlf_mediaplayer audio / video player (when present) dlf_embedded3dviewer 3D model viewer (when present) dlf_multiview the multi-document grid
All of these plugins read the same global tx_ /
tx_ request parameters, so they can render even without Solr
or with the image host unreachable.
Subpages
| Path | Content |
|---|---|
/oai | A raw OAI-PMH endpoint (dlf_), served as XML. |
/validation | The dlf_ plugin: validate a METS / IIIF / any XML
document URL against the configured schemas. |
/search | The dlf_ plugin, backed by the emulated Apache Solr (see
Search). |
Multi-View
The root page can be switched between the single-document viewer and the
multi-document grid. The two are mutually exclusive views of the same page,
selected by the tx_ request parameter. When it is set,
the dlf_ grid (a draggable set of iframes, each embedding the
page viewer for one document) is rendered instead of the single viewer. The
toolbox Add document tool (multi) is what normally
adds the current document to the grid. See the Multi View
plugin chapter for the plugin itself.
